A Tribute To Professor D. Meade Feild, R. Perry Sentell, Jr. Jan 1968

A Tribute To Professor D. Meade Feild, R. Perry Sentell, Jr.

Georgia Law Review

T HE members of the Editorial Board pay me high honor in requesting that I contribute a few lines to this issue so appropriately dedicated to Professor David Meade Feid on the occasion of his retirement from teaching in the Law School. Professor Feid is a man of so many interesting facets, however, that one is awed by under- taking to meet such a request. Because attempting to write about him is a little like grasping at the wind (and, more practically, because I shall no doubt have to debate with him each statement that I make), I wish simply …

Needed: The Social-Scientific Lawyer, Kent M. Weeks Jan 1968

Needed: The Social-Scientific Lawyer, Kent M. Weeks

Cleveland State Law Review

Once confined to academic journals and considered irrelevant to American law, the empirical findings of the behavioral sciences are now the lawyer's tools. The Supreme Court not only accepts empirical data of the social scientists in briefs, but implicitly seeks such data in order to enable the court to make decisions.


Opinions Of Counsel: Responsibilities And Liabilities, Gaspare A. Corso Jr. Jan 1968

Opinions Of Counsel: Responsibilities And Liabilities, Gaspare A. Corso Jr.

Cleveland State Law Review

I have surveyed the views of lawyers and laymen in an effort to ascertain: what lawyers intend their opinion letters to be, what clients expect when they request opinion letters, and what is expected by various governmental agencies from lawyers representing clients before such agencies.


Processing A Workmen's Compensation Case In Ohio, James L. Young Jan 1968

Processing A Workmen's Compensation Case In Ohio, James L. Young

Cleveland State Law Review

The Workmen's Compensation system, which has been a part of Ohio law since May 31, 1911, represents a sharp departure in concept from the earlier methods of redressing work injuries. Under Workmen's,Compensation, neither the negligence of the employer nor that of, the employee plays any part in the determination of the employee's entitlement to the stated benefits. It is the fact of injury sustained in the course of and arising out of employment which is critical.


Fair And Reasonable Attorney Fees, Jack Griesmar Jan 1968

Fair And Reasonable Attorney Fees, Jack Griesmar

Cleveland State Law Review

The beginning of each attorney and client relationship places the attorney in a position of having to determine the worth of his service for the particular work required of him, in order that he may do the "job" for this particular client. The attorney has invested a great deal of time and expense in developing his skills in the area of the law. He is given the right to charge for the service which he can render by the state or states in which he is licensed to practice his trade. The question then presents itself: What is a fair …

There is no profession which has more to gain from dramatic new technological developments for the automation of information than the legal profession.


The Law, The Lawyers, And The Writers, L. Neille Shoemaker Jan 1968

The Law, The Lawyers, And The Writers, L. Neille Shoemaker

Cleveland State Law Review

The great writers have one thing in common-they castigate the human race, including themselves, the frailties of mankind, and his noble institutions. Law and the lawyers have suffered at the hands of the writers. The doctors have suffered even more. Most rulers, if they lived long enough, have been the subject of satire, caricatures, exposure, or castigation. The church and churchmen have also suffered. The principal subject matter of satire over the centuries has been the Church. ... Because of this general emphasis on soiled humanity, the legal profession need not feel alone as it finds itself the subject matter …


Review Of Handbook Of Appellate Advocacy, By M. Josephson., Douglas A. Kahn Jan 1968

Review Of Handbook Of Appellate Advocacy, By M. Josephson., Douglas A. Kahn

Reviews

The practice of appellate advocacy may well be the most abused skill in the legal profession. The successful conduct of an appeal can preserve a client's favorable verdict or reverse his losses; and an appellate determination is often dispositive of the case. Yet, while most members of the bar recognize that trial litigation requires specialized training, too many attorneys regard appellate advocacy as commonplace and devote little or no effort to the study of the techniques of brief writing and oral argument. I have personally observed a sizeable number of cases which were lost on appeal, not because counsel failed …


Tenant's Attorney: Evaluation Of Impact, Ronald D. Glotta Jan 1968

Tenant's Attorney: Evaluation Of Impact, Ronald D. Glotta

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The natural question raised by the passage of "Tenant Rights" legislation is whether the new law helps or hinders the practicing attorney representing tenants. In analyzing the package of Tenant Rights Bills enacted in Michigan in 1968 this article will focus on three questions: 1) whether such legislation raises false hopes in being heralded as a major declaration of rights and an effort to solve the problem of housing shortage; 2) whether such legislation actually further oppresses tenants, especially in their exercise of the one effective instrument in their power: collective action; and 3) whether such legislation significantly changes the …

D. Meade Feild, Sidney 0. Smith, Jr. Jan 1968

D. Meade Feild, Sidney 0. Smith, Jr.

Georgia Law Review

In the post World-War II invasion of the University of Georgia by returning veterans, the Law School received over 500 of the most mature, most critical, and most independent of the group. Truly the years of 1945-50 were exciting ones at Athens and those days of crowded classrooms, split sessions, and twelve months' operation produced a large number of graduates to fill the great need in the legal profession existing at the time. Many of that group now hold positions of leadership and responsibility (for better or worse!) in the bar, the courts, and government of the state. All were …


David Meade Feild - A Personal Reminiscence, Edward E. Dorsey Jan 1968

David Meade Feild - A Personal Reminiscence, Edward E. Dorsey

Georgia Law Review

I FIRST met Meade Feild when I was a member of the Mercer University Law School Freshman Class of 1989. That class quickly made a reputation at the School as being a "good" class, and it is not immodest to say that the years have proved this evaluation to have been solid and accurate. We were all children of the depression, and not one of us was at law school without some sacrifice. We had seen, and were to see, hard times and bad times, but this is not to say that we were hard- bitten or in any way …


Some Personal Observations About Professor David Meade Feild, Edward W. Killorin Jan 1968

Some Personal Observations About Professor David Meade Feild, Edward W. Killorin

Georgia Law Review

IT is fitting that this Review should dedicate an issue to a man who is at his prime in a great career as Law Professor, rather than wait until all comments must be post mortem. It should not always be left for historians to distinguish the superlative. The D. Meade Feild I know would never permit an institutional convention such as "retirement for age" to end his career. It is heartening to learn that he will continue to preside over law classes after taking a change of venue from the Athens Division to the Macon Division of the Middle District …


The Development Of Legal Systems: The Ethiopian Experience, Robert Allen Sedler Dec 1967

The Development Of Legal Systems: The Ethiopian Experience, Robert Allen Sedler

Law Faculty Research Publications

A complete, modern legal system must be created in each of the "developing nations" of the world to meet the needs of rapid social and economic growth. The problems experienced in imposing a new legal system upon a "developing" society are frequently similar among the various nations. Professor Sedier discusses these problems of general legal development with respect to several new nations. His detailed analysis of the progress of the Ethiopian legal system brings into focus the common denominators of legal and societal evolution. He is particularly qualified to discuss the Ethiopian experience because of his former position as Assistant …


Legal Aid--Lay Control And Organizational Complexity Render Oeo Legal Service Program Unacceptable To New York Court--In Re Community Action For Legal Services, Inc., Michigan Law Review Dec 1967

Legal Aid--Lay Control And Organizational Complexity Render Oeo Legal Service Program Unacceptable To New York Court--In Re Community Action For Legal Services, Inc., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

The Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) and the New York City Council Against Poverty approved the organization and the OEO funding of three legal service corporations as part of a comprehensive program to provide legal assistance to New York City's poor. According to the plan, the first corporation, Community Action for Legal Services, Inc. (CALS), was to approve proposed plans for setting up and operating neighborhood law offices with OEO funds and then to supervise and coordinate the agencies that sought to put those plans into operation. These agencies, operating as delegates of CALS, and under subcontracts with it, were …
